arXiv:2608. 16628v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern Multimodal Retrieval-Augmented Generation (M-RAG) systems are fundamentally limited by the binary connectivity paradigm of traditional simple graphs, which fails to capture the intricate, high-order correlations among heterogeneous entities, such as the N-ary relationships between a visual chart, its scattered textual descriptions, and underlying numerical data.
arXiv:2607. 24861v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Question answering (QA) over complex documents requires models to retrieve and integrate evidence distributed across distant document regions and modalities.

The paper introduces TrioRAG, a graph-free multimodal retrieval-augmented generation framework that combines evidence from the question, an anchor image, and a VLM-enhanced query via late fusion. It also presents AutoQA, a benchmark featuring noisy web-sourced images that require reasoning across manuals. TrioRAG outperforms graph-based systems on three benchmarks while cutting costs and speeding up inference by 1.6–2.3×.

CausalEmbed is an auto‑regressive method for generating compact multi‑vector embeddings in visual document retrieval. By using iterative margin loss during contrastive training, it reduces the number of visual tokens needed by 30‑155× while keeping performance competitive across different backbones and benchmarks. The approach offers efficient training, scalable test‑time performance, and a flexible scaling strategy for multi‑vector representations.
